RX-8 stability in high winds

Hello all:

I just got back from the CES in Vegas. On the way and back I did not see any RX-8s. Did anyone on this forum go to the CES in Vegas?

What I would like to know is on the way back I went through winds with gusts to 75 MPH and then HEAVY rain-If anyone went through the same thing how stable was their RX-8? I saw that wind affecting Mercedes and Lexus and audis.

Thanks for your input

Low centre of gravity, finely balanced, why wouldn't it be stable?

I attended the CES on Sat and Sun and was disappointed that the 04 RX-8 headunit is not compatible with Sirius (05 is ok). Other than that the show was great.
Because of the weather I drove my Accord instead of my RX-8....bad decision!!!

Thanks benlee12 for your input.

Query: why was taking your Accord a bad decision? (Maybe other than not having enough fun ;-)
